So far during this brief playoff run I have met some dumb ass Pittsburgh fans. So dumb these Penguin fans are they remind me of Vancouver fans. After the first two games Penguin fans are trying to tell me their defense core is great. I said really? Did you miss the first two games? Or how about the regular season where you are in the bottom half of the league. Even saying that the first two games your defense has showed how weak it really is.
Penguins fan: They are awesome. You have no clue what you are taking about.
Me: I guess you missed the first two games. Who is your top 4 defensemen.
Penguins fan: Kris Letang.
Me:Letang is good. He eats minutes but struggles against big forwards in his own zone especially near his own net. After that they drop off tremendously on Pittsburgh's depth charts. The Flyers averaging 6 goals a game is showing their weakness.
Penguins fan: You have no idea what you are talking about. The Penguins were hurt all year. They struggled because Crosby was hurt.
Me: Um Crosby plays offense not defense.
Penguins fan:I know that! I am just saying Crosby makes everyone better including his defense. Besides Letang was 4th in shorthanded goals and 6th in Ot goals for defensemen. He is awesome.
Ok I said he was good but using phantoms stats does not make him elite.
Penguins fan"How am I a using phantom stats?
Me: When saying he is 6th with Overtime winners for defensemen. He has one and he is tied with 23 other guys. The NHL website just has him listed above other people guy. The same is for overtime goals he has one.
